COUNTERPARTS Release New Single

Wednesday, July 10 2013
With anticipation growing for their third studio album, The Difference Between Hell And Home, Canadian hardcore band COUNTERPARTS have released their digital single "Witness" for download along with a full song stream. Demonstrating their brutally honest lyricism and full throttle delivery, "Witness" effectively encompasses vocalist Brendan Murphy's ability to masterfully translate emotions that most are afraid to allow to surface. Of the song, Murphy comments, "The song is about how you go through life and nothing feels right, but you can't quite put your finger on it. It gets so bad where you almost wish you had something to blame it on. No one likes to admit that they are the problem." Download the single on iTunes / AmazonMP3 and listen to the full song stream here.
With just two weeks until the release of The Difference Between Hell And Home, fans can expect a new music video on July 15th and updates from the road as COUNTERPARTS begins their US tour alongside HUNDREDTH beginning July 12th. Directly following, they will head home for a string of headlining Canadian performances which begin August 9th and then pack their bags to begin a European tour alongside AUGUST BURNS RED beginning September 12th.

SEEKER have partnered with Cvlt Nation to unleash ‘Submit,’ the first performance-based video from the album Loss. SEEKER has been tour non-stop since its release, and now the Dallas trio are on their first headlining tour with support from Hollow Earth. The track features guest vocals from TJ of Wrvth.

“This is one of the most vicious songs that we've ever recorded and was the first song that we wrote for Loss.” Bassist/vocalist Bryce Lucien continues, “With the lyrics ‘Bite down hard until teeth splinter, inhale, swallow, repeat,’ we fell the video really captures the lifeblood of the song. A huge thank you to our friend TJ from Wrvth for doing the guest vocals at the end.”

ABANDONED BY BEARS revisit the summer of 2016 in their new video “For The Sake Of Nothing.” Filmed during the bands ‘Guardians Of Easycore Tour,” the video is the second from their latest release The Years Ahead.

On the earth-conscious video, vocalist
Nick Brooks explains, “This world is our home, and it seems like we're going
out of our way to destroy it. We've only got one shot on this planet and we
need to stop taking it for granted. ‘Vanguard’ is a track that means a lot to
us for this exact reason. If something isn't done soon there will be nothing
left, we need to be the change to preserve the world for generations to
come."

Drummer Daryl Pryor adds,
"World issues aside, shooting ‘Vanguard’ was a whole lot of fun. All the
rubbish that you see in the video was sourced from recycling plants and garbage
bins, it was kind of gross sorting through it but we felt it definitely played
a part in the meaning behind the video."

Signing with them has just made us feel really valued and wanted. After meeting the whole crew, we definitely feel the mutual respect and look forward to doing great things with Victory!"
